Nina and I took the bike and did the Taos loop today. Either way we head to Taos, it’s 100 miles. With the little exploring we did, we logged 239 miles. The bike got 43.6 m.p.g.

The day started out just great, no wind, and with the promise of light winds we expected a calm ride. The weatherliar was true to form, he lied. On the downside of the mountain we ran into severe winds. They kept blowing all the way home.

The winds played havoc on my gas milage. I made it back home on fumes. 5.7 gallons in a 6 gallon tank. When I started the bike up after I fueled up, the nav unit flashed  saying that it detected I was low on fuel and to press OK to search for the closest fuel. I did and it did not show the closest fuel, my place, it showed the closest being 16 miles away. Peckerheads!
